Beyond representation: Public service media, minority audiences and the promotion of capabilities through entertainment

Entertainment programming is an important means for public service media (PSM) to address minority audiences, and to fulfill their social mission vis-à-vis these groups. We argue that these efforts are plagued by a thin normative grounding, stopping short at vague notions of representation. In this article, we argue that a capabilities approach invites a much-needed reconsideration of the fundamental objectives of such entertainment-based representations. The article offers a first operationalization of the capabilities approach in the context of televised entertainment. First, we identify and qualify a set of basic capabilities that we propose PSM should promote to minority audiences through entertainment content. Second, through a case study from Norway involving focus group interviews of young immigrants, we demonstrate how entertainment can facilitate the promotion of such capabilities. On this ground, we discuss the implications of a capabilities perspective for PSM efforts to accommodate marginalized audiences.

Production values as program quality signals in Spanish linear TV: A comparison of two periods

Technology disruption, digitalization and media convergence have triggered a profound crisis in the television industry. In this context, quality is an essential strategic element for success, especially when consumers have learned through their experience with VOD, becoming more demanding and less loyal customers. Then, has the importance of quality signals changed with the emergence of new online alternatives? And the quality perception among viewers? Our research explores four production values (the host, content, the set, and technical quality) as TV program quality signals and their effect on the quality perception of entertainment programs of Spanish broadcasters. We compare two years: 2012 and 2016, a period during which the Spanish television market changed due to appearance of OTT services. Using t-tests and regression models, we establish that the importance of quality signals varied over this period, with content proving more important and the set less so in 2016 as compared with 2012. Additionally, in 2016, the results show that the quality perception of linear TV entertainment programs depended more on subjective elements such as liking and satisfaction than on objective elements, as it was in 2012. Finally, our findings are discussed, and some managerial implications and future research are suggested.

Structural Changes in Radio and Impacts on Music Listeners

The current study explores structural changes in radio and assesses their impact on music listeners in Pakistan utilizing the theoretical underpinnings of the political economy of communication. A mixed-method approach was used to answer research questions and evaluate hypotheses. A contextual analysis was utilized to evaluate the qualitative analysis after the interviews with 14 experts in the Pakistani radio industry were transcribed. Cross-tabulation with chi-square test, Independent Sample T-test, and AVOVA with Tukey tests were used to analyze survey responses from 200 respondents in order to determine the correlations between variables. The findings show that structural trends in the radio industry's deregulation and commercialization have curtailed access to a varied range of listeners in Pakistan. According to the research, deregulation, licensing fees, new license fees, and the restriction of Indian music, revenue generation, and licensing to nonprofit FM radio have all limited access to a diverse spectrum of radio music listeners in Pakistan. This trend also leads broadcast media in Pakistan to produce and disseminate more entertainment programming rather than information and education programs.

A Study on How TV Liberal Arts Entertainment Programs Reproduce 'Liberal Arts' and 'Education'

이 연구는 대중인문교양의 최근 흐름을 주도하고 있는 ‘TV 교양예능 프로그램’이 ‘교양’과 ‘교육’을 어떠한 정교한 의미망 속에서 재현하고, 이를 통해 어떠한 담론과 가치를 사회적으로 생산·매개하는가를 분석하기 위한 목적으로 수행되었다. 이를 위해 세 가지 연구문제를 설정하고, 대표적인 ‘TV 교양예능 프로그램’ 4개에 따른 총 37편을 선정하여, 기호학적 방법을 활용하여 분석하였다. 첫째, TV 교양예능 프로그램의 강연 지식과 내용을 구성하는 요소들은 하나의 기호체계로서 어떻게 구조화되어 의미작용을 표출하는가에 대해 통합체 분석을 활용하였다. 연구 결과, ➀ 전문가의 지적권위와 지식 생산, ➁ 흡입력과 몰입을 높이는 이야기 구성, ➂ 압축적인 정리와 속성의 전달방식, ➃ “커뮤니케이션 플랫폼”의 개발과 활용, ➄ 신변잡기식 잡담과 수다의 변주라는 다섯 가지 요소가 도출되었다. 둘째, TV 교양예능 프로그램에서 ‘교양’과 ‘교육’을 재현하는 이항대립은 어떻게 구조화되고 있는가에 대해 계열체 분석을 실시하였다. 연구 결과, ➀ 교육적 권위: 교육자-학습자 간의 이원화된 경계 구도, ➁ 교육적 행위: ‘일원적 전달’과 ‘반론없는 수용’, ➂ 교육적 소통: ‘피상적 질문’과 ‘제한된 답변’, ➃ 교육적 관계: ‘지식셀럽’의 탄생과 ‘소비대중’ 간의 비대칭성이라는 네 가지 측면에서 의미화되었다. 셋째, TV 교양예능 프로그램의 계열관계 속에 내재한 ‘교양’과 ‘교육’의 사회적 함의는 무엇인가에 대해 비판적 교육문화 담론 분석을 시행하였다. 연구 결과, ➀ “만능키처”: 자기 제한 없는 과도한 권위 부여, ➁ “지식과 교양의 외주화”: 방송시스템의 편승 전략과 지식체계 교란, ➂ 대중의 표피적인 지적 욕망 비판이라는 세 가지 주요 담론이 도출되었다. 이를 통해 본 연구는 TV 교양예능 프로그램이 재현하는 ‘교양’과 ‘교육’의 실상이 그것을 수용하는 대중들의 삶과 일상에서 이와 관련된 지배적 의식, 신념, 가치, 사고방식 등을 암묵적으로 주조하는 문화정치적 영향을 미칠 수 있다는 점을 논의하였다.

Political sorting in U.S. entertainment media

ABSTRACT Analysis of public opinion, news consumption, and social media has examined increasing political polarization and/or partisan sorting; however, few have explored the potential connection between entertainment programming and political sorting. This paper examines viewership of U.S. television entertainment from 2001 to 2016 and finds increasing differentiation in the shows watched in primarily Democratic versus primarily Republican markets. Notably, these years coincide with partisan sorting in news consumption and enhanced fracturing of the U.S. television landscape. The article confirms growing differences in the most-watched shows in heavily Democratic versus Republican regions, a finding that provides uncommon evidence of suspected differentiation by political view and of the need to adapt theories of the “mass” media function of entertainment television to a context of greater fragmentation and choice.
